"Ha, this depends on how many non-official forces and manpower I have, right? Let's also see how much help the White People in Harrison Port can offer me."
Ian's heart was like a bright mirror.
He knew very well that when the Marquis of Barton gave him a military rank and organization, in addition to recognizing that he was their "one of their own", he also wanted to see what kind of power he had in Nanling.
Can you secure your next position as leader?
After all, he is already at the second level and can fully become an official Baron Ian. In fact, if Ian is willing to stay in the imperial capital for a longer period of time, for example, until the conference
After the peace talks and the subsequent national local meeting are over and the mountain people's rebellion is proven, he can even directly rely on the relationship between the second prince and the second prince to become a baron, and return to the territory to clean up the rebels in the name of the baron.
chaos
But the problem is, Ian can't wait. As long as he appears in front of the defender Axel, there is a high chance that he will fall off his horse and die, so he can only use a hasty approach.
Knighthood is back.
10
But the problem is not big, it’s just the order.
It is a fact that the mountain people rebelled and all the knight territories were involved. As long as he can quell the chaos in the Ryan Territory, then Marquis Barton can apply to the imperial capital and use this credit to officially
Confess him as a baron, make yourself a noble, and then control the entire original Lean territory. Jen 1
But the premise is whether you can do this.
Facing those rebellious or silent mountain knights, what should Ian do now that he is alone?——
Should I borrow favors from the Marquis of Barton and ask for people from the Marquis's personal knights? Or should I ask for help from the Dragon Worship Cult and Port Harrison?
If you really put all your subordinates under this independent organization, the empire will disband the independent regiment in the future and disperse the teams and officers in the regiment to other places.
District, are other people who have become officers willing to continue to work with me?
3
If you are just willing to do things with yourself, does that mean you are disloyal to the empire?
These things are very troublesome and there are many ways to do it.
"This eagle just likes to play this kind of temptation! But it also shows that the magic potion can transform the body in all aspects, and the character will also be affected." 4
Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
The original owner of the Warcraft material used for the true form of Archon White Flame is mostly a suspicious and cruel type of Warcraft. Marquis Barton just likes to be provocative rather than ruthless.
He is also quite upright and not ruthless behind the scenes, and his personality is already considered very good. Jen 5]
Of course, there is the most important thing.
"How much funding is there? Is there any equipment? Is it based on regiment-level or battalion-level establishment?"
Ian did not hesitate to ask for military expenses, but Marquis Barton couldn't help laughing: "You don't have any people, so you need funds and equipment? You still want to get it by group, do you know?"
Do you think this is free money? ] 2 7
Although he reprimanded him, he obviously liked Ian's keenness: [Funds and equipment, both the Governor's Mansion and the 19th Army Corps here in Nanling are short of money and have no money.
I will give you extra support. As many people as you can recruit at that time, the legion will provide you with military pay and equipment.]
[I will personally give you five hundred thalers for the operation. Personally, this is a thank you for finding the spy in the Governor's Palace, so that Mayowa will not make a fool of himself1
This time, Marquis Barton's tone was quite sincere. He did not talk about the subsequent damage that the flesh-shifting monster might cause. When the identity of the other party was exposed in the future, Mayowa, who knew nothing about it,
There will definitely be a stain on the colonel's resume, which will prevent him from being awarded the rank of general.
Five hundred thalers, not much. It really takes only a dozen people to be armed at most, but the most important thing is that Marquis Barton's attitude of helping Ian is enough to do many things in Nanling. Ian quickly thanked him. Jen 1
[correct]
Marquis Barton seemed to be thinking of something: [I remember you have armor, right? The Cyclops armor you designed some time ago attracted a lot of attention]
[Although unfortunately not selected, the idea of using heavy armor equipped with super heavy firepower and some flight capabilities to forcibly annihilate key enemy targets is very popular.
The eldest princess likes it very much] [ 7
[Before this, most of our sniper armors used light armor to increase mobility and use special ammunition to snipe enemy officers. Now it seems that in
Now that the defensive power of armored armor is getting stronger and stronger, this idea may have fallen behind]
Without waiting for Ian to be humble, Marquis Barton said: [Mayowa, prepare an independent armored team (three units) for Ian, and provide all the supplies]
"Yes." Mayowa responded, and Marquis Barton continued to say to Ian: [Former Laianling is an important origin of alchemical materials in Nanling. Take it back, this is your first mission.
service goals]
[The second goal is to annihilate all the mountain thugs and Feiyan land agents who have occupied the Leian Territory as much as possible, leaving no one alive. These guys who dare to rebel after being incited
Not worthy of mercy]
[The third goal, I ask you to serve as a nail, nail it around the Solitary Flame Peak, which is one of the few gathering points for the rebel mountaineer army to attack the Agate Stone Plain.
Hold on until the beginning of next year, when the empire will make big moves]
[You are directly responsible to Mayowa and me, others have no right to command you]
Compared to the previous temptation, this time it was all for Ian's benefit.
Let's not talk about the establishment of the independent armored squad of the imperial military. It is somehow higher than the independent regiment level of a frontier army.
A team's crystal supply is enough for one of Ian's armors to last until the end of the year.
Ian's original goal was the Ryan Territory, and now he has a military mission, which means that the original goal has additional rewards.
Not to mention the second one, Ian had no intention of keeping the enemy alive. On this point, he and the Marquis of Barton completely agreed. No matter what the reason or the difficulty, it was okay to
Anyone who gets in his way of renovating his territory will die, so there is no harm in being a knife.
The third point is that the so-called big move is probably the empire's large-scale offensive against the western border of Nanling after the Flaming Land fortress group became independent. Jen 2]
Before that, Feiyandi would definitely urge the dragons and mountain people to strengthen their attack in order to better harass Nanling at the rear.
Although the road from Guyan Peak to Ryan Territory is not the only one, there will definitely be many rebel troops attacking the territory.
To put it bluntly, this means that as long as Ian is his lord, the Nineteenth Legion will support him.
"It seems that I have to settle things with Ryan as soon as possible."
Ian thought so. The other party gave me such a great convenience just to see if my 'genius' could not only do research, but also deal with affairs accordingly.
Some ability.
That's pretty much it.
After the call, Ian rested overnight at the Governor's Mansion.
Before resting, he called Viscount Grant and Elder Puder in Port Harrison.
This time, before Ian came back from the imperial capital, he didn't do anything. He had already sent the corresponding gifts back to his hometown.
What Viscount Grant received was the "repair plan for the Aether Furnace Heart".
After Ian returned from the Great Maze of the South China Sea, he had long been able to repair the damaged ether furnace core of Viscount Grant's ether weapon "Zhenglan" and help the machine that originally had a third-level energy
The etheric weapons, which have strong power but can only exert the second level of power now, are back to their peak.
But because he couldn't reveal what he had gained in the maze, he kept it on hold. After returning from the imperial capital and designing corresponding armor, Ian felt that the world
It's time to show more of your value and help your old superior stabilize the situation in Harrison Port. 1]
As the core of external maritime trade channels, Harrison Port is definitely a key target of Feiyandi, and there may even be Feiyandi navy.
Come directly to attack. In order to ensure that the goods in his future territory can be sold, Ian must make advance plans.
It has to be said that this gift was indeed delivered to the heart of Viscount Grant - this Viscount who is probably able to advance to the third level in the next few years on the way to the insect nest.
Sir, the worry in my heart is probably that even if I become the third level, I will not be able to restore the glory of my family.
After all, the etheric weapons cannot exert their full power. Even if he reaches the third level, he is not considered a nobleman with a solid background.
But Ian can solve this problem!
According to Elder Puder, what Ian sent back was the "Silver Peak Messenger True Form" inheritance that had been re-determined in the sequence and refining method of the potion.
The most important thing about potions, besides the formula, is the refining technique. After all, there are so many possibilities for processing different materials, and most of this secret is passed down by word of mouth.
, only the empire’s official library has the most detailed collection of refining methods, which may not necessarily be the best.
But Ian was able to re-enact them all.
Moreover, with this as a starting point, the Bai Zhimin family once again has the right to cultivate their own sublimators.
But even if he gave such a big gift, Ian didn't want to ask for soldiers from his hometown.
In other words, he didn't plan to have so many soldiers.
[Scott has already set off with the team of White People (30 people) you requested, and should be arriving at Nauman City soon]
Viscount Grant is in a good mood now. His child will be born in a few months, and he is fully preparing for it. He doesn't pay much attention to other things.
Indeed, the Viscount has no idea why Ian is such a genius. He can actually advance to the second level at the age of sixteen. Who cares about it, is it possible that he still has to fight against ordinary people?
De gave him a low-pressure lecture, scolding him for why he cultivated Ian so well without telling him?
There is one more genius among you, why do you think so much?
It's rare to be confused. 55]
What's more, the final facts proved that his decision was right, and he couldn't suppress Ian for his own use.
In this case, it's better to let him go and see how far Ian can go - Viscount Grant certainly didn't expect that Ian could soar into the sky and become like this.
But on the other hand, now that he has decided to let go, how great Ian's achievements will be, how great his favor will be. Jen 7]
This is indeed the case. Not to mention the method of repairing the Ether Furnace Heart that Ian obtained from the Ellen family, but what Ian said will be discussed in the future with the Harrison Port Alchemy Workshop.
Cooperation is enough to raise the alchemy level of Harrison Port to a level it shouldn't be——
When Ian becomes a master alchemist, I can claim to be the one who trained a master alchemist——
The success rate is still 100%! 8]
Viscount Grant happily decided that he would never train any more alchemists, so he would stop and leave a perfect record. Jen 1
If his situation were placed in the alchemy circle of the Imperial Capital, I don’t know how many people would be angry to death——
Is this what you cultivated?! With Ian’s background, I can do it even with me!
[Do you still need manpower? Is a team too small? ]
Ian had contacted Viscount Grant long before returning to Nanling and asked for a group of manpower to protect the convoy he was sending to Ryan.
The Viscount was not stupid. He had long seen the relationship between Scott and Ian, so he took advantage of the situation and asked this person who was trained by Ian to be sent over.
But the mountain people's rebellion happened just a week ago, and the originally planned manpower must not be enough, so the Viscount thought about whether to send more people.
It was normal for nobles to borrow troops from each other, and it was not a big deal. Although Ian is not there yet, he has reached the third level. It is only a matter of time.
"No need, sir, I know what's going on."
Ian had already had an idea. The thirty-member White People's team was the young, energetic, and trustworthy warriors of the clan that he asked Elder Pude to select.
There is nothing more, and it is not good if the loyalty is not up to standard: "But you also know that the situation in Le'an is complicated. Next, Qingchao may need to be transferred over. I need a
Do something as an Ascendant deputy.
[He is your man and listens to you]
It's a pity for Viscount Grant, because Qingchao, as the guard's swordsmanship teacher recently, has greatly improved the average martial arts level of the Harrison Port Guard - Ian
His vision is indeed no joke, and the people he likes do have skills.
But the other party is a loner who is only loyal to Ian.
As for Elder Puder, he sent Ian a landmark and told Ian that after Ian settled the territory matters, he would give Ian a package containing
All the clues he had found in recent years.
When Ian heard that the location of the landmark was located in an ancestral forest behind the Elephant Bone Mountain, the former home of the Redwood Aboriginals, he felt a little clear in his heart. He knew that it might be related to the "Big Red"
Sugirin Jukai's "Foreseeing Two Leaves" is related.
It seems that Elder Puder has been really looking for this treasure that may be able to strengthen Ian's spiritual power.
[Do I need to wait until Qingchao arrives before taking action?]
This is the opinion of Elder Puder. Although he believes in Ian's strength, he also believes that it is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands.
The terrain of Leian Territory is important, and there are probably a lot of shadows lurking in the mountain knights and the Flying Flame Land. Although there will not be multiple second energy levels, there will definitely be many sublimated ones.
Factory 2
"Waiting? Why wait." Jen 2]
Ian smiled. He turned his head and looked through the window of the Governor's Palace to the moat of the upper city that was blown by the strong autumn wind.
Autumn is getting deeper and winter is approaching, and the air is filled with a chilling atmosphere.
The young man said calmly: "My armor will arrive tomorrow.
"When Scott and the warriors of the clan arrive, it will be the first step in the family's revival.
Yes, step one]
After turning off the communication equipment, Elder Puder took a deep breath. The old man suddenly found that he was actually trembling a little.
He has been waiting for how many years. Even after he became aware of Ian's talent, he has been waiting with hope for eight years.
as finally
The first step is about to be taken.
[Then everything is up to you] The elder said in a low but gratifying tone: [Remember, your safety is the most important]
"I understand."
The rising red sun in the early morning shines on the entire Agate Stone Plain and Nauman City, and also causes thick morning fog to rise on the damp plain roads.
The gentle breeze stirred up the white mist, and a neat convoy was passing through the mist, heading towards Nauman City, with several cavalry patrolling the surrounding area.
The camel beast convoy is the most common and safest means of transportation in Nanling. Even if it really pulls the imperial capital's speeding car here, it will not work. 1
Apart from anything else, Nauman City does not sell civilian element crystals.
As the leader of the team, Scott, who has dark hair, is honestly a bit out of tune with his team members.
It's not that his men don't obey orders. On the contrary, his team members are well-trained, skilled, and almost follow orders - as long as they understand the orders.
What means.
The real reason for the incompatibility is that Scott is an iron citizen and his subordinates are all white people. There is still some color conflict.
When his team members stood with him, they were really just a black spot in the snow, and their healthy wheat complexions looked a bit abrupt. seven 8
But this was the inevitable result of deciding to follow Ian.
Scott turned his head and looked at his team members.
These young people of the White People are all excellent seeds selected by Elder Pude since childhood. In the past, some of them would join the convoy as a defense force for Port Harrison.
strength, and some of them will become the guards of the White People's Chamber of Commerce and go to the outside world to experience and grow.
However, since Ian showed his talent, Elder Puder has been cultivating the most elite team to serve as Ian's future team.
They are loyal to the clan and to Ian, because starting from eight years ago, Elder Puder told them clearly that all the preferential treatment they received, whether it was food or drink,
Whether education or resources are tilted, it is all in order to fight for the revival of the family in the future, in order to become the power of the White People's psyker.
And now, although it is several years earlier than expected, it is also the right time.
They are eager to learn and prepare to show their talents under the future head of the family.
"Ian has advanced to the third level and returned. I didn't expect it to be so fast. I thought I could learn more about swordsmanship and related engineering theories. I'm about to get the certificate."
Book.
Thinking of this, the Iron People with amber eyes sighed. The speed of Ian's rise could not have been imagined by Elder Puder and him, even the nobles in the imperial capital.
?
The desolate plain scenery in front of us recedes on both sides of the road, while the city of Naumann in front of us is getting bigger and bigger.
The originally golden agate stone plain was now all wasteland, and there were not many people around.
In the past autumn, not to mention around Nauman City, even Harrison Port would have a celebration festival, and most of the major chambers of commerce would strengthen trade at this time.
No matter day or night, the sound of convoys driving on the road is endless.
But now, because of the war and the poor harvest, there was only Scott's motorcade on the broad road leading to Nauman City in the early morning.
But it's not all bad.
At least, it was precisely because of the changes in the Flying Flame Land and the mountain people that he was able to leave Harrison Port, leave his remote hometown surrounded by dense forests, and go to Nauman City and another territory.
See the wider world.
Let your life have another possibility.
As an iron man without any background, his father was a country craftsman, Scott would have had Ian to guide him, let him learn engineering knowledge, and give him merit.
Lao made him the squad leader. He would probably spend his whole life as a member of the escort team, and he might even die at the hands of the natives.
But now, he had the opportunity to follow a young lord and build an industry from scratch.
Thinking of this, Scott cleaned the dew on the surface of his armor. The weather in October in the south is still humid even in winter. Whether it is armor or weapons,
It requires regular care to keep it from rusting.
The city of Naumann was in sight, but strangely still there were not many voices.
Incomprehensible.
Although Scott has never been out of Harrison Port, in recent years, the port has become a big city. Even if it is in a state of war readiness and there are no caravans, if it is close to the city
You can also hear a little bit of the sounds of residents' lives.
Nauman City is bigger than Port Harrison, so why is it so quiet?
Apart from anything else, don’t the guards need to patrol?
But soon, he knew why.
On the edge of Nauman City, there is a square next to the city protection tower. In peacetime, it is a small market where vendors from all over the place gather, but it has been empty for some days.
The thick tower stood tall in the morning mist, and the golden-red sunlight cast a long shadow on the square.
But what is darker than the shadows and more eye-catching than the sun is a black armor that is towering and thicker than the tower. Jen 3]
The giant-like pin armor outlines sharp and straight lines, giving people a heavy sense of danger. Although the red one eye is just looking straight ahead.
Square, but Scott had a feeling that the armor was staring at him from a distance. 5 5]
Staring at the entire convoy.
With curiosity and fear, the surrounding residents silently cast their eyes on the armor around the square, and the guards who were supposed to be patrolling the surrounding area also lined up around the square, from time to time.
Shi turned his head and stared curiously at the shining prism focusing port on the Cyclops' shoulder.
They didn't understand the technical principles, but their instinct as soldiers made them understand that it was definitely a deadly weapon.
Scott already knew who the owner of this armor was. He took a deep breath and smiled.
He ordered, urging the convoy to move forward: "Don't look like you're awake - get your appearance in order for me!
And all the members of the White People looked at the armor in the distance with expressions of astonishment and excitement.
They galloped towards the square.
In the early morning of October 23, Terra 773, Scott led the team and arrived at Nauman City.
At the same time, Ian also got his armor and welcomed his team.
Although the number of people is not large, it is just enough-
Everything is unfolding slowly and moving towards the good.
